Comedian Lee Sun-min has pledged to impose a "10 million won fine" if caught smoking.

On the 27th, a live broadcast titled 'Comedian Lee Sun-min Special Guest' was held on the YouTube channel 'Chimchakman Original Museum'.

During the broadcast, Chimchakman shared his own story of quitting smoking while eating agujjim (braised squid) with Lee Sun-min and encouraged Lee to quit as well.

Lee Sun-min said, "I want to quit smoking before I turn 40 and live at or below 96 kg. I currently weigh 96 kg." In response, Chimchakman remarked, "Dieting and quitting smoking are truly extreme challenges."

Chimchakman continued, "I used to be a smoker, but after quitting, I haven't smoked once for three to four years. My secret is that if anyone reports me smoking, I will offer a 10 million won reward." He then challenged Lee Sun-min by saying, "Unless you set a bounty of around 30 million won, your sincerity in quitting smoking will be questioned."

Lee Sun-min asked, "I don't think I can quit right now. When should I start?" Chimchakman teased, "Your mental state is completely rotten. You're making this declaration during this broadcast." Lee Sun-min ultimately declared, "I will make a pledge to quit smoking. If anyone sees me smoking anywhere in the world, takes a photo, and reports it, I will pay a 30 million won bounty." Chimchakman applauded, exclaiming, "Wow! That's incredibly cool!"

Chimchakman explained, "I quit smoking out of anger. The government only sells cigarettes but has eliminated places where people can legally smoke. I believed that unless I led a revolution, smokers' rights would be utterly devastated. Since I couldn't achieve this myself, I chose to turn over a new leaf and become someone treated with dignity."

Chimchakman added, "I pledged to pay 10 million won for every instance of smoking caught on camera. Lee Sun-min is a top-tier entertainer who has appeared in 'You Quiz on the Block,' 'I Live Alone,' and 'Won-i's Uncle.' Therefore, I will set your fine at 30 million won."

Chimchakman noted, "However, since Lee Sun-min might be in a state of mental or physical weakness right now, and as an entertainer, you might feel ashamed if we make it too easy for you to back out, I will give you three days to reconsider." Lee Sun-min responded, "I hate looking bad. Just let me eat one thing and smoke one cigarette." Chimchakman agreed, saying, "We'll do that."

Lee Sun-min confessed, "I think Chimchakman might become my benefactor. I quit smoking for a year when I was around 34 or 35 years old. But then something very stressful happened, and I started smoking again."

Later, Lee Sun-min asked, "Can you lower the amount? Please reduce it to 10 million won like yours." Chimchakman replied, "It's set at 10 million won with no changes allowed." In military mode, Lee Sun-min enthusiastically shouted, "Yes!" Although Chimchakman offered a seven-day period for reconsideration due to simple change of heart, Lee Sun-min loudly declared, "I don't need any reconsideration period!"

Lee Sun-min stated, "I have made anti-smoking pledges several times. When I started my YouTube channel 'The Healthiest,' I said, 'If 100 scenes of me smoking are filmed, I will pay a fine.' However, after 60 scenes were filmed, the production team gave up on me." He concluded by reaffirming his determination for this new anti-smoking pledge.
